A female from this address called 911 stating a man in the house was being violent. The phone line was open for a short time then disconnected. Officers responded and were aware of previous violent history at this address. They tried to make contact with occupants inside by phone. As officers were attempting to make contact, someone inside the home turned all the lights off. The home was contained, and continued attempts to make contact with anyone inside went unanswered.
